However, we will have to listen for any news which may affect the currency pair from European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde, who speaks later today. </p><figure><a href="https://admiralmarkets.com/analytics/traders-blog/eurusd-november-2021"><picture class="lozad" data-iesrc="https://fxmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/EURUSD_Daily_Chart-8.png" data- data- data-alt="EURUSD Daily Chart" data-height="572" data-width="1323"><source type="image/webp" media="(min-width: 640px)" srcset="https://dqvh7oj3vu3ch.cloudfront.net/720x,webp/fxmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/EURUSD_Daily_Chart-8.png"></source><source type="image/webp" media="(max-width: 639px)" srcset="https://dqvh7oj3vu3ch.cloudfront.net/375x,webp/fxmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/EURUSD_Daily_Chart-8.png"></source></picture></a>
